Ethnic dress:
Tunisia's clothing is similar to many middle eastern countries. The women's clothing is composed of long scarfs that are wrapped around their bodies. They have the scarfs to cover their faces and bodies. The men also wear middle eastern clothing. They wear clothing that covers the majority of their bodies.
Ethnic food: Tunisia's cuisine reflects their local agriculture. This includes: wheat (bread or couscous), olives and olive oil, meat, fruits, and vegetables. Tunisia's national dish is couscous.
Saute onion and olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add tomato paste, chickpeas, and 1 cup of water, and allow to boil for 15 minutes.
Cut vegetables, place them into pot, add 4 1/4 cup of water, and bring to a boil. Allow to cook for 30-45 minutes, or until veggies are cooked.
To prepare couscous, place it into a collander or sifter, replacing about 1 cup water with tomato sauce. (NOTE: I used couscous that only needed to sit in hot water for 5 minutes to cook. When doing so, I used 1 cup water and 1 cup of the sauce).
Place couscous in a large bowl, pour some of the sauce over it, and arrange vegetables on top.
